Boca complicates the first place
Newell’s surprises Boca with goals from García and Ditta and puts the team led by Hugo Ibarra in trouble. La Leprosy has managed to break Xeneize’s undefeated streak in a great confrontation.
With one player less throughout the second half, the locals showed at Marcelo Bielsa that they are a tough team. Despite the latest results at home, they managed to open the scoring early, and from there close the lanes to Boca so as not to suffer.
In what was an attempt at centers by the people of Buenos Aires, Lema and company prevailed in every defensive action. Something that, giving the team air, gave Ditta the chance to finish off a free kick to make it 2-0.
Boca tried to react in the final minutes but anxiety and time played against them. Now, Racing has a new opportunity.
